ISO: 18+ year old rum

I basically woke up today and decided I'd like to try to find some of these old bastards. After having the Green Rooms Secret Spot (Imperial Stout aged in 21+ year old Rum barrels), which tasted like whole fucking pint of pure rum still, I've been curious about these. I don't actually know shit about rum or the availability of any this old. Please school me.

So no idea? I'd probably like to not spend more than $100. Would all of these be second hand bottles (not available from a retailer)?

Not necessarily. Rum can be kept aging in barrels for decades. I know of some 40 year old rum. The age noted on the bottle indicates the amount of time kept in the barrel. Therefore, a 21 year old rum would be barrel aged for 21 years (I'm not accounting for blending).

this X1,000. i have both converted non rum drinkers to drinking rum with this and also convinced a few avid rum drinkers that this is the best rum ever. i've noticed the prices rising aver the past few years to about 120$ here, but you may be able to find it around $100. the 23 is also a viable option with similar flavor characteristics- it just isn't as refined. should be able to find that for around 80$ a liter.
